Tyger sketches

[Tygerson]

Thanks Peter and Eristhe!  

So to work on gesture, I spent about 2 hours yesterday doing proko gesture vids.  I'd draw the pose, redraw while watching, and then draw a third time.

This approach worked well with anatomy, but didn't go well with gesture! In fact, sometimes the gestures were worse when I copied his work!  I finally realized that when I copied carefully shape by shape, I'd lose the flow between the shapes.




So today I tried a new process, which worked much better.  

1. Do a quick gesture on my own (less than 2 minutes).  
2. Copy Proko's 2 minute pose, but with a different process
           a. Watch without drawing for about 1 minute, until he gets the major forms in as a whole.
           b. Pause the video, draw out the major forms and keeping the line of action between them.
           c. Finish out the video with the minor forms.
3. Analyze the differences between his and my work and retry the pose.
4. Exaggerate the pose.
